Chapter 5: Magical Hexagrams

Then, Yi Xingchen set up the wooden box, opened it, and took out a plate, a small bowl of white rice with full grains, and put it on the lid of the wooden box.

This small bowl of crystal white rice is used for divination, which is a popular method of dividing plum blossoms in the Ming Dynasty, called "Rice Divination". Because rice grows in the ground, it is moistened by the sunshine and rain in the sky, and it is the main food of people, so rice is the best spiritual object to connect the three talents of heaven, earth and man.

This small bowl of white rice was carefully selected for divination, and they would not eat it even when they were hungry.

After setting up the stall, Yi Xingchen sat on a long bench with his master and grandson He, looking at the pedestrians coming and going on the street, waiting for someone to come and tell the fortune.

Although he had inherited the memories of the dead apprentice, and there were all about the situation in ancient times, from the countryside to the town, he still looked curiously at the living ancient social life on the street.

The place where they live is called Tunzhou, which is located between green mountains and green waters. It's a bustling place. The streets of the city are very narrow, and it would be nice to have at most two carriages in parallel.

There are various stalls and shops on both sides of the road, and most of the people walking on the street are men. Young women are rarely seen, some are just elderly women or middle-aged women with children. Occasionally, you can see a few young women, all of them village girls in coarse cloth shirts, carrying burdens or firewood into the city to sell.

Even such a village girl wraps her head with a handkerchief, and her clothes are tightly wrapped, where can you see the **back thighs, ultra-low neckline, revealing snow-white cleavage, or revealing a round and slender ** fire girl under the miniskirt.

Yi Xingchen couldn't help but sigh, it seems that the bizarre and beautiful days of modern society are gone. The Ming and Qing dynasties were the most intense period of feudal etiquette, and it was a dream to get spiritual pleasure from this. I can't even eat with my eyes.

He stared at the pedestrians coming and going on the street, but his master, Gongsun He, next to him, did not turn his face to look at him, still worried about whether his illness would recur. Seeing that although the apprentice was looking at the people on the street stupidly, his expression did not seem to be a big problem, so he felt a little relieved.

At this time, a thin middle-aged woman, carrying two handfuls of green vegetables, walked briskly from the side of the street, came to their fortune-telling stall and put it down, set up the stall, and then wiped a handful of sweat.

When she saw Yi Xingchen sitting on the stool, she was taken aback, took two steps back, and said to Gongsun He: "Mr. Gongsun, didn't you say that your apprentice is dead, ......, ah no, seriously ill, seriously ill and dying?" Why is it like no one, sitting next to you and telling fortunes with you? ”

Yi Xingchen glanced at her, and those memories told him that this woman was a rural vegetable farmer who often sold vegetables next to their stall, and her name was Aunt Liu. Because her home is far away from the city, she usually picks vegetables before dawn and goes on the road, and she can't get to the city until noon.

Gongsun He was in a very good mood, and said with a smile: "Aunt Liu, you don't know this, I have already calculated the hexagram for my apprentice, he will be seriously ill this year, but he has the help of Tianyi nobles in his life, and he will be able to turn evil into good fortune and Chengxiang, so he died the day before yesterday, but I know it in my heart, so I am waiting for him to come back alive." After two days and two nights of resting on the corpse, today, the neighbors told me to bury it quickly, but I calculated that he would come back from the dead, and sure enough, he woke up at noon today and scared those people half to death. Hehe, how is it, my hexagram is very spiritual, right? Hahaha!

Aunt Liu stared at Gongsun He with wide eyes, and her thin lips smacked: "Is this really the case?" ”

When she said this, her small eyes looked at Yi Xingchen next to her, looking up and down, as if to determine whether he was a ghost or not.

Yi Xingchen looked at her and grinned.

Gongsun He triumphantly slapped Yi Xingchen on the shoulder and said, "He has been dead for two days, and when he woke up, it was already noon today, I told him that he would wake up, and he still didn't believe it, this stupid boy." ”

Yi Xingchen knew in his heart that when he woke up from the corpse, he scared his master Gongsun He to sit on the ground, and where did he calculate that he had come back from the dead, obviously using this matter to raise the accuracy of the fortune teller and increase his fame. Of course, he wouldn't debunk it, so he just laughed dryly and didn't speak.

Seeing Yi Xingchen's expression, Aunt Liu thought that what Gongsun He said was the truth, and her face was suddenly full of admiration, and her body was more bent, and she said to Gongsun He with a smile: "I said sir, why don't you calculate a hexagram for me and see when my dishes will be sold out today?" Can it be sold out? I also want to go back after selling vegetables early, the days are short in this spring, it gets dark early, and the night road on the dark road is very infiltrating, especially if you have to cross a cemetery, it is best to pass before the sun sets. Can you do the math for me? But I don't have the money to give you money, so do a good deed to help me. ”

Today's resurrection of his only apprentice from the dead made Gongsun He very happy in his heart, and in a happy mood, he had nothing to do anyway, and said happily: "Okay, Aunt Liu, I'll give you a free hexagram." ”

This Aunt Liu often sells vegetables next to their stalls, and she also knows the rules of fortune-telling, and when she heard this, she was overjoyed, and hurriedly came over and wiped her hand on her clothes twice, and then squatted down, grabbed a small handful of rice from a small bowl of white rice placed on the wooden box in front of Gongsun He, and put it on the empty plate next to her. After Gongsun He counted it, he poured the rice into the rice bowl and grabbed it again. Caught three times.

Gongsun He counted the number of rice grains in each of her three rice grabbings, looked up at the sky, determined the time, and added and divided the rice grains of the first three rice grabbing by eight, and got the hexagram; He also added the number of three grains of rice and the number of hours converted into eight to get the next hexagram. Three more times, the number of rice grains and the number of hours are added and divided by six, and the remainder is determined to determine the movement, and this hexagram is obtained.

Then, he divided the hexagram into five hexagrams, which are the body hexagram representing the diviner himself, the hexagram representing the object of divination, the lower and upper hexagrams representing the process, and finally the change hexagram representing the result.

After Gongsun He listed the five trigrams, he stroked his beard and said with a smile: "The body hexagram that represents you is the Zhenmu hexagram, and the change hexagram that represents the result is the Kanshui hexagram, the aquatic wood, the lord is lucky, your green vegetables will be sold quickly, and you can make a profit." Hey, hey, hey. ”

When Aunt Liu heard this, she opened her mouth and smiled, revealing a mouthful of yellow teeth, and said: "That's good, then I can go home early, I don't have to go through the cemetery in the dark, if I can make a profit, I can also buy a piece of maltose for my little son, great, thank you, thank you." ”

Yi Xingchen watched from the side, and at the same time, his mind naturally interpreted his own hexagram and came to a judgment. From the plum blossom easy number hexagram theory, Master Gongsun He is right. If you interpret the hexagram yourself, you will also solve it like this.

At this moment, suddenly, a golden light flashed in my mind, and a clear three-dimensional hexagram appeared!

This hexagram is composed of six hexagrams, the leftmost one is the main hexagram of the upper and lower hexagrams, followed by the body hexagram, the use hexagram, the lower hexagram, the upper hexagram and the variable hexagram representing the divination results. The whole is gray, but the pattern of the hexagram that represents the object of divination is cyan and flickering.

In the memory left by the dead apprentice in his mind, this kind of hexagram did not appear when he came out, and there was no such situation before he crossed over.

What's going on? ――――――――――――――――――
